2) Abby made 5 1/2 cups of banana pudding. She served 7/8 cup of the pudding to her kids for dessert.

Answer:

<u>37/8</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

we are going to create 5 1/2 into an improper fraction for now, so it is easier to manipulate.

5 1/2 = 11/10

in order to find the answer, we need to set them both to a common denominator(we need to make sure they have the same denominator so it is easier to subtract)

11/2 if we just take 1 of the cups that Abby made and subtract that by 7/8 that give us the answer

11/2 - 1 = 9/2

we will now us the cup we subtracted from that and "give it to the kids"

 1 = 8/8

so

8/8 - 7/8 = 1/8

so we have 1/8 leftover from that cup, so we can add that back

since 1/8 is a hard number to just add off the top of your head, we can just change the denominator of 9/2 into 8 instead of 2:

9/2 = 36/8

so

1/8 + 36/8 = 37/8

so since 37/8 cannot be simplified anymore, the answer is

<u>37/8</u>

Cory writes the polynomial x7 3x5 3x 1. Melissa writes the polynomial x7 5x 10. Is there a difference between the degree of the
bagirrra123 [75]

Degree of a polynomial gives the highest power of its terms. Yes there is a difference between the degrees of sum and difference of the polynomials.

<h3>What is degree of a polynomial?</h3>

Degree of a polynomial is the highest power that its terms pertain(for multi-variables, the power of term is addition of power of variables in that term).

Thus, in x^3 + 3x^2 + 5, the degree of the polynomial is 3 as the highest power in its terms is 3.

(power and exponent are same thing)

<h3>What are like terms?</h3>

Those terms which have same variables raised with same powers.

For example, x^3 and 3x^3  are like terms since variable is same, and it is raised to same power 3.

For example 4x^2 and x^3 are not like terms as the variables are same but powers aren't same.

The given polynomials are:

c(x) = x^7 + 3x^5 + 3x + 1\\\\p(x) = x^7 + 5x + 10

Their sum is

c(x) + p(x)  = x^7 + 3x^5 + 3x + 1 + x^7 + 5x + 10 = (1+1)x^7 + 3x^5 + (3+5)x + 11\\\\c(x) + p(x) = 2x^7 + 3x^5 + 8x + 11

(only like terms' coefficients can be added (or subtracted) for addition or subtraction of them )

The sum's degree is 7

Their difference is:

c(x) - p(x) = x^7 + 3x^5 + 3x + 1 - x^7 -5x - 10 = (1-1)x^7 + 3x^5  +(3-5)x -9\\\\c(x) - p(x) = 3x^5 - 2x - 9

Difference's degree is 5

Thus, both's degrees are not same.

Thus, Yes there is a difference between the degrees of sum and difference of the polynomials.

Determine whether y varies directly with x. If so, find the constant of variation k and write the equation
nydimaria [60]

y/x = k

6.4/4 = 1.6

11.2 / 7 =1.6

16/10 = 1.6

20.8 /13 =1.6


This is a direct variation and the constant is 1.6

y=1.6x
